Coronation Street News: Will Jane Seymour Stop By Weatherfield?

Coronation Street spoilers tease that fans have some very exciting news to look forward to. There’s speculation that Hollywood star Jane Seymour might be making the move to Weatherfield in the coming months.

As a matter of fact, the brunette beauty and legendary actress said that she would love to guest star on Coronation Street after actor Ian McKellen made the recommendation. McKellen guest starred on the hit ITV soap back in 2005.

That’s what fans are hoping for. The actress made it no secret that she would love to be a part of a Coronation Street storyline in the future, saying that it would be loads of fun.

According to The Daily Mail, the 68-year-old actress said: “My friend Ian McKellen told me, ‘You’ve got to do Corrie,’ and I thought, ‘Yes, why not.’ If they called me, and I could go there and do it and have some fun with it, then yes. It’s a cult thing. Nigel Havers went to school with me and he was in Corrie for a bit.”

Should Seymour appear on the show, she will have some catching up to do. The actress admitted it’s been a long time since she watched any of the episodes.
